Root Cause

This would help because Codex will often mention the hash in one place, but then /review uses or shows only the commit name/subject somewhere else. In practice those can be inconsistent enough to make the review target ambiguous.

Description

What feature would you like to see?

Please make /review always show both the commit subject/title and the short commit hash together when it refers to a specific commit.

For example:

  • Fix provisioning timeout (a1b2c3d)

instead of only the subject/title or only the hash.

This would help because Codex will often mention the hash in one place, but then /review uses or shows only the commit name/subject somewhere else. In practice those can be inconsistent enough to make the review target ambiguous.

If both pieces of information were always shown together in one place, it would make the review flow much more reliable.

I have enough horizontal space for this, so the extra text would be worth it.

Suggested places to include both:

  • the commit being reviewed
  • review context summaries
  • any commit picker/confirmation UI
  • finding summaries tied to a specific commit

Additional information

I checked the open issue tracker and did not find an exact duplicate for this request.

Related but not the same:

  • #5547
  • #5019
  • #9084

extent analysis

TL;DR

Modify the /review feature to consistently display both the commit subject/title and the short commit hash together.

Guidance

  • Identify the code sections responsible for rendering commit information in the /review feature and modify them to include both the subject/title and the short commit hash.
  • Update the UI components for the commit being reviewed, review context summaries, commit picker/confirmation UI, and finding summaries to display both pieces of information.
  • Verify that the changes do not introduce any formatting or layout issues, especially considering the mention of available horizontal space.
  • Review related issues (#5547, #5019, #9084) to ensure the proposed change does not conflict with existing or planned functionality.

Notes

The implementation details may vary depending on the specific technology stack and codebase structure, which are not provided in the issue description.

Recommendation

Apply workaround by modifying the existing code to include both the commit subject/title and the short commit hash, as this is a targeted feature request rather than a bug fix that might be addressed in a future version.
